Diet Like ClockworkSetting Your Diet Clock
It’s two AM in the morning and you still can’t sleep. You hear the next door neighbor’s baby bawling again, there is a whippoorwill in your front hedge that owns an overactive beak, and the train on 5th & Vine is making another midnight run for the third time tonight. You know, that come morning, you’re going to feel worse than an un-watered garden of poison ivy.
Your Sleep Clock is closely related to your Diet Clock. Your body gets adjusted to falling to sleep at the same time every night (or day, according to your work schedule). Once that familiar hour hits, you begin to grow drowsy. If you aren’t able to go to bed, you’ll feel the bad effects the next day.
Daily diet acts much in the same way as our Sleep Clock. We get accustomed to eating at certain times during the day. If we miss a meal, we may get a headache, or feel dizzy, or become famished from missing our meal time. Our body is suddenly lodged into a state of confusion. It’s thinking, "Where’s the food already? I’m ready to begin processing."
For a moment, let’s go back to the topic of Sleep. Let’s say that we are at liberty for the next year to do as we please. We begin to take several naps throughout the day. When nighttime falls, we have difficulty falling to sleep. Our Sleep Clock has sprung a spring.
This same cycle appears in our Diet Clock. Most people eat three meals per day with a couple of snacks in between. When a person begins to eat continually throughout the day, they are eating ‘at will’ rather than 'on demand’. The body is suddenly thrown into the Land of Confusion again. It thinks, "Wonderful. First I have no food to process, now I am suddenly overloaded. I demand a raise!"

If we eat at times other than our regular meal times, our bodies are again tossed into the Land of Confusion.
